Mother Aegypt and Other Stories by Kage Baker

This was on the new book shelves, when I went flying thru, but after I got home I realized it had been misfiled, because I had read this 10 or more years ago. It was fun to reread, though, and there were a couple of stories I had forgotten. The title story was my least favorite by a long shot.

I enjoyed this book of short stories by Kage Baker. Some are set in the same universe as The Anvil of the World, etc., and one in The Company world (I think just one). The others are excellent short stories of their own. Overall the themes are darker than much of Baker's work. Enjoyed them all.

Best story was What the Tyger Told Her. Loved that one.

Finished this off while having the sniffles in bed yesterday. Usually I don't like plowing through short stories, but these were interesting and some were intertwined and there was a long one at the end connected to her Company series. Sinister without being gruesome (much), Baker has a thing for rogues who are not as charming as they think and angry females who find their way. Slightly snarky and enjoyable. (September 20, 2004)

A very nice find at Backstock Books a few weeks ago, just now got around to reading it. A very nice collection of Kage Baker shorts.
